The ballades notées of Guillaume de Machaut. Greckel, W., (. The music review, 42(2):91, 5, 1981.
abstract   bibtex   
Of all Machaut's works the ballades notées are richest in musical innovation and personal expression. Detailed analysis shows that their exceptionally emotional style results from the use of passionate texts, incessant syncopation, expressive chromatic treatment of modes, tonal freedom (with unusually frequent use of major and minor triads), dense polyphonic texture, and a considerable number of internal cadences. The author also discusses the works' performance practice.
